Well, it all depends.

If you like fairy tales, Italian movies and/or piano ragtime, then you will love this movie. If you try to rationalize fairy tales, stay away. If you find it awkward that English may be their second language, stay away. And most of all, if you don't like ragtime and Jelly Roll Morton, don't even start. But if you enjoy these things or maybe even just two of them, then have a ball. I looked to see who the pianist was, because I'm sure it's not Tim Roth or Clarence Williams III, or they would both be selling records instead of working as actors. The pianists were actually Jelly Roll himself and Scott Joplin on recordings. Isn't that cool?
